rocketman Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I can't believe these guys are not in the Rock and Roll HOF. They've been around forever, yet they still put out top selling albums and sell out wherever they play. My first album was Moving Pictures, which is given to me by Neil Peart's brother-in-law. I played that album until my ears fell off. Neil is a great drummer, but more importantly he's very humble. He recently mentioned that he's still taking lessons! Geddy defines progressive bass. Alex is very melodic and doesn't overdo it with distortion. Digital Man is one of my favorite solos.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I first saw 'em in 1983. They were already huge by that time, it was a sold-out arena show on the Moving Pictures tour if I recall. Three people. Never missed a beat. Flawless. Consumate professional musicians. I'm really not a Prog-Rock fan. You can keep your Yes and Moody Blues, but I respect all those guys immensely.

Basshole Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Just the ability to play insane bass lines, crazy guitar lines, and amazing drum fills in front of 70,000 people is good in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djroge1 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I too saw them for the Moving Pictures tour in Chicago - Great show!! I enjoy most progressive rock, but I'm also a fan of Fusion Jazz too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstMeasure Posted October 12, 2009 Author Share Posted October 12, 2009 I saw them in 91 for Roll The Bones. Not exactly historical like Moving Pictures, but great show none the less. and the Roll The Bones album holds a special place for me. It was the tape I listened to as I drove across country from Califrornia to Indiana when I was a Lad and brand new Rush and a long road trip are all you needed.

NeoConMan Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 That the one with "Cool Fire" on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPguitarman Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 RUSH is my favorite. I've seen them at least 4-times. The latest was on the Snakes and Arrows tour. They are awesome and will never be replaced in my book as the best band ever. I agree, Why aren't they in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame???
